Read on to find out what makes the brand so special.

Designed and Manufactured in Great Britain

Every Perrin & Rowe® product is designed, engineered and produced in Great Britain using the latest engineering technology and the highest quality raw materials available. All brassware is carefully hand assembled, individually water tested and packaged at its 55,000ft2 head office in Rainham, Essex before being shipped across the UK and around the globe. The name of the person that assembled and polished the brassware is included with the product. Customer services and the research and development team are also based at head office with new product prototypes made on site.

In addition to its head office, is its 58,307ft2 facility in Wolverhampton where a highly skilled team uses primarily hands on processes including polishing, plating and casting to create all of the components that go into making Perrin & Rowe® brassware. In just one week 16,000 individual parts will be polished totaling 750,000 parts per year!

30 miles away from Wolverhampton is the 18,000ft2 Tamworth site where 10 individuals produce the full range of Perrin & Rowe chinaware as well as making the product moulds. Processes include Clay Mixing, Casting, Glazing and Kiln Placing.

Attention to detail and high standards of inspection are key elements for every Perrin & Rowe® site with some components having up to six individual inspections as they pass through the production process.

Handcrafted

Perrin & Rowe® truly believes that at the heart of its business is its workforce and is committed to keeping key skillsets in Great Britain. These include hand glazing, casting, soldering and polishing. Polishing a product by hand such as a large Deco bathroom spout can take up to an hour due to the intricate level of detail. An apprentice scheme is in place to help preserve these special skillsets.

The managing director of Perrin & Rowe®, Steve Cole is joined by his two sons, David Cole who is the sales director for the company and Philip Cole, contracts manager. But it doesn’t stop there; across the three Perrin & Rowe sites it is not unusual for couples and family members to work together, including relatives that span different generations.
